Wedding place cards are one of the often overlooked wedding stationary items that are just as vital as wedding menus or programs. Remember that complicated seating chart that you and your fiancé pored over for hours? Your place cards or escort cards, will be used to tell people where to sit according to that chart, careful seat planning can save time and headaches by creating stimulating conversation and avoiding family feuds. There are a lot of great ways to display your wedding place cards at your wedding for easy access and to avoid mix-ups. A corkboard with the place cards pinned on it for your guests to find and take to their own seat works well, just be sure to include table numbers or table names on the cards. You can also place the cards at the tables and guests can mill around and find their own names, with this method you can use the cards alone or pin a flower to them, place them with a wedding favor or even pin them into an apple or other hardy fruit for an earthy chic look. Be sure to order your wedding place cards in a color that matches or compliments your other wedding stationary, especially your menu and programs.

Customer reviews of our Wedding Place Cards & Reception Place Cards

July 19, 2014Useful

"Keep in mind when ordering these that not everyone you invite will attend- we ended up with a couple dozen left over! We did put some of the extras to use, though, by cutting off the flowers in the corner and using them to decorate other things."

November 11, 2013Perfectly Personalized

"We wanted place cards to go with our invitations, but there weren't any that matched. We used the Ombre Forest invites and requested that the designers make these place cards match in color and font. The results were great! We also changed the bottom to "Eat and laugh at table __". Everything turned out perfectly!"

October 21, 2012Lovely place card

"I love this design and every time I order another piece of stationary for our big day, I fall in love with the design all over again."

June 24, 2012Perfect for woodsy themed wedding!

"We are having our wedding in a barn on a lake and these were perfect for it! I love the night sky with fireflies on it, since we all will be surrounded by that once everything gets underway. It's perfect for when our guests arrive for the reception. The printing is perfect, the paper is sturdy, I can't wait to see how they display on the table. Very pleased with this product!"

June 7, 2012Perfect card for my event!

"These cards were perfect for my engagement party. I appreciated the fact that the lettering at the bottom of the card was able to be changed to whatever I wanted - instead of it saying "You are seated at table ____" I was able to put "Welcome to the Party!" and everyone loved them. Thank you!"
